Mexico High School track teams

The Mexico Bulldogs track teams were to have a home match Thursday against Hannibal, but due to snow on the ground, the meet was moved to Hannibal.

'It was cool but a beautiful day for track and field. Both teams were grateful to finally get a meet in," stated MHS Coach Bucky Green. "Our coaching staff was very pleased with the effort of our kids," he added.

The Bulldogs lost 110-32 and the Lady Bulldogs were defeated 84-55.

Both teams displayed very good performances with little or no full practice and in some specific events the day was quite positive. Double champions were Jaime Brandow 3200, 1600 both personal bests that would be considered very good performances a month from now, Anne Baker in the shot put and discus, Dayneisha Shivers in pole vault and 100 meter hurdles, Malik Holman 1600 and 4x800 relay, Christian McKeown 800 and 4x800 relay. Other meet champions included: Karen Baker, triple jump; Alex Shaw, Sean Kelly 4x800. Leslie Fischer in 1600/ 800, and Jake Anderson high jump were notable performances as well.
